There's going to be nothing of use on that phone, I'm calling it now. The terrorists behind that attack were likely acting alone and the FBI know that, they just want to set a precedent so they can do it in future.

A New Case
FBI are trying to stop a Nuke Bomb in White Van

Under Dezzy's Logic that Nuke will Destroy the USA City its in.

Apples and oranges, dear. One has nothing to do with the other.

You can't use the threat of a missing person to justify potentially invading everyone's privacy. You can, however, do pretty much anything as long as you link terrorism to it because it's the ol' saying at work, you can use 9/11 and/or terrorism to justify anything in American politics.

Using a specific hypothetical situation that fits the world of films more than real life as a counter argument is just silly, more so than usual coming from you.

Of course you would Cherie but in making that an option what you are doing in reality is hanging up a sign to all the worlds cyber criminals that says hey this door isnt locked properly we left a way in for you!! free bank details,personal data needed for identity theft,where you live,where your kids go to school even the keys to your car (some car makers are scrapping keys in favour of the RFID chip)
You can be sure making a way in for anyone (even Apple themselves) people with bad intentions will find it almost instantly. The amount of crime it would facilitate and danger it would put people in would dwarf any good that could come of creating a back door to let the FBI in.

No because that scenario is dumb as ****. How would IS get their hands on a nuke? How would they manage to smuggle said nuke into America undetected. Why, after all that, would they be stupid enough to leave everything that's needed to foil their plot on a phone that the FBI can hack?

It's dumb and I refuse to take your B-movie action plot seriously.

Even Apple call it dancing on the edge of the Volcano They barely stay ahead of the security game when it comes to their software (and they are pretty damn good at it) They admit even if they created a way in that only they knew it would be game over everyones security gone.

Well no, you're oversimplifying to suit your own argument to such a point that it's no longer factual.

Looking through a missing person's phone to find them is completely different to using the excuse of terrorism to potentially allow the government to hack whoever they please.

If you can't see the difference between the two scenarios then there's nothing I can do to help you.

Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin


And anyway, if they ban or hack into encrypted messages, terrorists will just start using steganography and there are loads of apps http://www.jjtc.com/Steganography/tools.html. So we sacrifice encryption, allowing the not so good people a back door into our data, whilst doing absolutely nothing to stop terrorists using steganography and other methods to communicate in secret.

So to break this down, if a family member went unexpectedly missing would you want the police to access their phone and PC or not?

The position of any mobile phone which is switched on and connected to any network (wifi or phone) as long as you know the phones SIM id then you can find it. I would recommend all parents either keep info of their childs SIM or have a 'find my phone' app connected to their phone.

You can follow the tracks of someone by using triangulation from cell towers and that will tell you where their phone has been and when.

The ridiculous thing is, even Apple can't by-pass encryption because they never built a back door in the first place. The reason a back door (hook) has never been made is because it would completely destroy all security in online banking. Presently, the most secure way of doing your banking is to do it by phone connected to a phone network and not a wifi network because the whole process has end to end encryption. Allowing and making a hook would be opening the door to every other criminal in the world.

If this is ever allowed, the banks will immediately switch off all mobile banking, they would have to. It doesn't matter what the government say in response to this nonsense, they are reliant on people not understanding how encryption works and what will happen if and when hooks fall into the wrong hands.

It is unclear who helped the FBI access the phone and what was stored on the device.

No its not! Its a company in Israel who specialize in this sort of stuff. The thing is, this company is so secure that America will of had to send the phone to them and the company will of sent back information that was stored on that phone. This is why its taken as long as it has.

You've watched too much 24, nothing you say has any basis on reality.

You can't buy Uranium in the blackest of black markets and nuclear materials are watched over with a keen eye. You can't just go out and buy nuclear material and making a nuclear bomb isn't exactly something that anyone could do. you need nuclear scientists with the correct equipment on top of the materials and none of IS' territories even have Nuclear capabilities.

There's no way to smuggle a nuke into the US, to suggest it could be done through Canada is dumb.

Finally, how would the FBI get hold of the phone before the attack happens? That kind of evidence only comes to light after the fact, not before. Nothing about your fantastical scenario would ever happen in real life. It's dumb beyond belief.
